Grandmothers to Grandmothers, from the Stephen Lewis Foundation

A little over a week ago, I had the privilege of doing a cooking demonstration for a wonderful charitable organization called Grandmothers to Grandmothers, which is a campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation. These grandmothers have jewelry parties to raise money for grandmothers looking after their grandchildren in Africa. The jewelry is made in Africa and sold here with all the proceeds going back to them.

Kitchen Inspired provided a cooking demonstration at their party and included demonstrations on authentic African cuisine from the regions of Tanzania and Dar es salaam. Below are pictures of the demo and pics of some of the dishes, which included cumin oil shrimp and crushed peanuts, and an Indian/African Fusion Sambusa(very similar to Samosas of India)chaat.
